Pacific Beach sugaring, the Alexandria Professional way

Why sugaring

Everything waxing does, without the burn.

Sugar paste is just sugar, lemon and water. It’s warmed to body temperature, molded onto the skin and flicked off in the direction your hair grows.

1

Never hot

Applied at body temperature, so there’s nothing to burn or scar your skin.

2

Only grabs hair

Sugar can’t stick to live skin cells. It lifts hair and dead skin and leaves the rest alone.

3

Shorter hair works

It pulls hair as short as 1/16″, so you can come in sooner and stretch time between visits.

4

Kinder to ingrowns

Hair comes out whole, in its natural direction, so there’s less breakage and fewer ingrown hairs.

5

Wipes off with water

Water-soluble paste. No sticky residue, no solvents, no stained clothes.

6

One client, one ball

Your sugar is used on you and thrown away. No double-dipping, ever.

Meet Molly

A beach shack built around your skin.

Molly Moore started sugaring in 2006 after her own skin fought back against waxing and shaving. She trained with Alexandria Professional and now specializes in ingrown hairs and problem skin.

Every visit includes real advice on exfoliation and home care, so your results last between appointments.

What's the difference between sugaring and waxing?

Sugar paste is sugar, lemon and water applied at body temperature. It sticks to hair and dead skin, not live skin, and comes off in the direction the hair grows. Wax is hot, grabs live skin and pulls against the growth, which breaks more hairs.

Is sugar waxing the same thing as sugaring?

Yes. People call it sugar waxing, but there's no wax in it. It's all natural sugar paste.

How long does my hair need to be?

Sugar grabs hair as short as 1/16 inch. If you've been shaving, give it about two weeks before your first visit.
